無線技術和電池性能的最新進展使越來越強大的移動計算設備得以使用，這些設備本身比以往任何時候都更為廣泛。這些設備的出現導致了大量從事數據通信和處理的用戶的激增。為了報告這一領域的進展，本雜志發表了一些研究，介紹了移動信息系統領域中新思想和概念的理論和/或應用，并歡迎來自學術界、政府和行業的研究人員、從業者和專業人士的意見。除了最初的研究外，移動信息系統還發布了重點評論文章，這些文章審查了技術的現狀，確定了新的趨勢，并為發展領域提出了未來的方向。

Recent advances in wireless technologies and battery performance have enabled increasingly more powerful mobile computing devices, that are themselves more widely available than ever before. The emergence of these devices has led to a proliferation of users engaging in data communication and processing on a massive scale. To report advances in this area, this journal publishes studies that present the theory and/or application of new ideas and concepts in the field of mobile information systems, and welcomes submissions from researchers, practitioners, and professionals across academia, government, and industry.As well as original research, Mobile Information Systems also publishes focused review articles that examine the state of the art, identify emerging trends, and suggest future directions for developing fields.
